hey guys dr. Burke here I have a

question what food triggers ketosis okay

what do you think is it fat protein or

carbohydrates okay any ideas well let me

tell you first of all ketosis is the

process whereby your body is running

it’s its engine on ketones

instead of glucose okay so that’s what

ketosis is and a lot of times people

associated a ketogenic diet with a high

fat diet thinking the high fat is going

to trigger ketosis that is not true or

protein like in the Atkins a high

protein diet will trigger ketosis not

true it’s basically the absence of

glucose okay it’s the absence of

carbohydrate that triggers ketosis so

it’s not even a food that will trigger

it it’s the absence of something it’s

not doing something you have to keep

these carbs below 20 grams if you really

want to get into it but for some people

it’s like below 50 grams a day all right

so that’s what triggers ketosis if you

have too much protein that will nullify

it as well so you don’t want to do too

much protein you want to keep a moderate

amount of protein or too much protein

will also nullify ketosis now fat is

fairly neutral however you can do too

much fat and a meal or too frequent like

a snack and just for the fact that it

actually triggers your digestive system

can then raise insulin because eating in

general triggers insulin which will then

nullify ketosis so ketosis of the state

where your carbohydrates are very low

and the reason why it works is because

when you have lower glucose or

carbohydrates you have lower insulin so

it’s really the absence of insulin

triggers ketosis insulin is the door

that opens the cell to glucose so

controls glucose so they work together

alright thanks for watching you know I

just wanted to take a moment out to
